  Gayle Rankin and Grant O’Rourke star in the wonderful new comedy The Incomer. The film follows siblings Isla and Sandy, who have spent decades living in isolation on a remote Scottish island — hunting seabirds, sharing stories of their ancestors, and defending their home from dreaded “incomers.” Gayle, who you may know from House of the Dragon and Glow, plays Isla, while Grant, best known for Outlander and Shetland, plays her brother Sandy. The Incomer premiered at Sundance earlier this year, where it won the NEXT Innovator Award, and is coming to theaters September 25th.
